A German foundation has said it will no longer be awarding a prize for political thinking to a leading Russian-American journalist after criticizing as “unacceptable” a recent essay by the writer in which they made a comparison between Gaza and a Jewish ghetto in Nazi-occupied Europe.
They did accept responsability, but in itself has no value if they cannot raise their voices against another genocide that is happening right now. Totally agree with the res you say.
It still has value if it stops then from committing another genocide themselves. But yeah, they could be doing a lot better.
Yeah, it is not. Defending who commits genocide is not what you’d call a “stop”.
Yeah I completely agree. They know better than anyone what fascism looks like, and the fact that they choose to do nothing is sickening.
